Damn, looks like my intended solution isn't possible :(

I came up with another one, though. I want the installer to add the 
database files to a separate directory and copy those to the main 
directory at the end. This way, the files aren't covered by the 
uninstaller. I can later add a page to the uninstaller asking if they 
should be removed too, but the main point is to avoid them being 
silently deleted.
